This old clock turned out beautifully Jimmie. That old clock has been around 100 years ago holy moly it is older than me lol. I loved the little antique square. Thank you for the video and have a fantastical week.

Loved the rework of the movement. I have a clock very much like that but missing the "clickers". The video shows how they work on this clock and gives me a starting point for making some replacements. Very interesting material, thanks for posting.

I recently acquired a Gustav Becker Vienna wall clock that appears to be in the same general condition (movement & wood) as the one you videoed. THANK YOU so much for guiding through the wood restoration aspects. I’m a novice horologist at best, more confident in wood working/restoration….. Thanks again. As many times as I watch movement disassembly/reassembly, I feel I need some sort of class or training before i attempt to do wheat you did with the movement on my own. Any suggestions on where to learn this? I live near Dallas but can travel (semi-retired)…. Thank you, Greg Hemesath

Hi Greg, You could purchase a similar movement pretty cheaply and practice on that. I take a lot of photos as I disassemble and reference them as I reassemble. I also keep the gears in the chime and going trains separated once it’s apart…makes it much easier to get it back together. I’d be happy to help you however you’d like. We are in Celina tx much of the year. My email is bigdad56@bellsouth.net

That glass must be modern float glass and not the old hand blown bubble Glass. They still make antique bubble Glass in Germany for antique restorations. Some people say the antique reproduction class has more flaws than the original antique glass did.

Lovely old clock, beautifully restored. Did you leave the date of service inside the movement like the person in 1938 did?

That's funny - at 9:23: I'm just repairing an Austrian regulator and that exactly the same - the bracket is way off square - 2mm lower on one side - so the pendulum hasn't got a chance!
